5. Why does there exist a demilitarized zone in Shanghai?
This zone was established following the Shanghai Incident of 1932 with a view to avoiding clashes between the Chinese troops and the foreign garrisons there. The zone is intended to serve as a cordon sanitaire, and no military works or armed forces are allowed there. peace and order being maintained by the Chinese police, or the Peace Preservation Corps. Now, taking advantage of the fact that there is no restriction as to the number or equipments of the police forces, the Chinese have armed them fully so that they differ from the regular troops in no respect, and increased their numbers to 20,000, which means a great menace to the International Settlement. A Joint Commission representing Japan, China, Great Britain, America, France, and Italy is in existence in order to insure the enforcement of the agreement concerning the demilitarized zone.
6. At the request of Consul-General Okamoto the Joint Commission met on the 12th. At this meeting Mr. Okamoto, supported by the representatives of Great Britain, America and other Powers, demanded the Chinese number of the Commission, Mr. O.K.Yui, Mayor of Shanghai, that the Chinese Peace Preservation Corps be withdrawn as had been previously agreed to by Mr. Yui himse1f. Mr. Yui replied that though as Mayor of Shanghai he had agreed to the withdrawal on the preceding day, he could, as a member of the Commission, do nothing but refuse to accede to the demand. Thus, the effort failed towards effecting the withdrawal of the Peace Preservation Corps through peaceful negotiations.
7. On the other hand, the Peace Preservation Corps, which had been rapidly reinforced since the 9th, have made formidable warlike preparations, and their first line has advanced to a point only 150 metres away from the headquarters of the Japanese garrison, creating an extremely dangerous situation.
8. Moreover, the Chinese forces mentioned above are threatening to cut off communication between the Japanese garrison and the Japanese sector of the Settlement, For this reason certain units of the Japanese forces have been sent out to safeguard the lines of communication.
9. In the present circumstances, what is most important is that the Chinese should faithfully observe and carry out the terms of the agreement of 1932 for the cessation of hostilities.
